Alright. I will most likely move darkfang and threads made in the last month or so. If anyone wants other threads moved let me know.

Namewise, I can't think of one offhand that hasn't been used before either here or elsewhere but if I come up with something I will let you know. Something with the Muses perhaps?

Good point, lol. Which ones specifically what you or others liked moved over? I know Stitch was editing a lot of his recently, so if need be I can just open up the forum temporarily so he can edit them and whatnot.

Actually you should be able to move threads from there yourself if you want, just let me know if you can't.

Yeah, if everything posted in Story Realm within the last year was merged, it would be total of thirteen threads. If it is ever decided to un-merge, the process would be a lot less painful.

And how do you feel about the possible names, Elara? It is your forum, technically.

Well I just don't know if I want to merge the forums together, since it could kind of make a mess. I figured if people want easy access to old stories it'd be easier to look at the archives, rather than going through both Art and Story if they were all in one forum. But if you guys whom use that forum often want it that way it's not a big deal and I'll merge them over, but as I said earlier, unmerging would be next to impossible.

It would have been nice if I had been notified at least that my forum was being merged... though since none of the story forum threads are showing up at all it is more like it was deleted and tossed into the archives. Any word on when they will be transferred, if ever?

Oh no! All this time I've been training to fight him and I never knew the true capacity of his power! This doesn't look good...Goku, where are you?!

I like both ideas, actually. We can rotate the one with all of us in with the rest, if you're up for it.

And out of curiosity, what would mine entail?

Well, I can have a basic design one, one that tries to capture all of us into one image, or rotating ones for individuals who sign up for it.

I mean, I've gotten a pretty good idea of most people's style on here. I think the easiest would be individual ones, but a group one would not be impossible.

If you wanted one with everyone in it, I'd definitely like a description of how everyone would like to be represented.

I like that idea, Xeo. I wouldn't mind it, but like you said, it might clash. We could pick themes, maybe? And have a couple different ones? And I think it would look smoother if we do puzzle pieces (if possible), and a large one not in place yet, maybe slightly crooked, can say "Xeogaming" or whatever.

Actually I kind of just got this idea, but maybe True could make some kind of banner out of a quilt-like image that she's done before? So it'd be made up of a bunch of avatars that represent us. Then again that might be a lot of clashing stuff, but I dunno.

Does anyone still talk to Sparda? He did something like this years ago, I believe, made indivituals their own banner. I know he made one for me, but I'm not exactly sure who else he made them for. I also don't think they were featured on the board, I think he just whipped them up for fun and gave them to us to put in our sigs...or something.

I dunno. Perhaps I'm remembering it totally wrong. But I think doing SOMEthing with banners would be pretty awesome. I definitely like the idea of making specific banners and such in specific themes for the board. **shrugs**

As far as the merges, so far so good, imo. I know I was one of the people with the "if its not broken..." mentality, and I still am, but I'm not going to show up at your house waving around an firey pitchfork in protest of what's been done. **shrugs**

What's the idea for a general one?

I can do a general banner. And meh, sprites are cool but if you're want the board to have "more original character" I do not believe they are the righteous path.

Sprites would look better than modern characters, more universal... I guess. I dunno.

Rotating banners showcasing a single game each would be my idea.

And my idea alone.

I just like working with sprites.

Haha. Changes can be good sometimes. This place needs some new additions after the activity. I think it adds a nice touch.

And I like the the banner, as well, but I know what you mean. I really liked his idea on having a personal banner for everyone, but why not just one banner that suits all of us? A little bit of us somewhere up there--nothing copyrighted. If that's too difficult, rotating the personal banners sounds like a good idea, if DS wanted to do it.

Yeah, I'm starting to like it myself. I mean yeah I did the changes and all... but sometimes this stuff even feels awkward to me. , I know a lot of people here had a "If it ain't broke don't fix it" stance on this, but I dunno. I feel like it's kind of nice to change things up sometimes to keep things a little fresh. And I think condensing the forums just a bit will make it look nicer.

We'll probably change the banner soon too. Though I'm starting to wonder, should we try and make something more original, with no real copyrighted characters on it and everything? I'm starting to think that might look a little better and give the board more original character in a way, but it'd need more creativity. Though I do like the new one Cairoi came up with. But yeah, when I look up and see a random collection of a few characters, it's kind of weird sometimes.

Hm. I think oyu may be right about getting rid of Debate Shrine, but I don't know. If anything big ever comes up, it could get heated. That seems like a maybe.

Otherwise, everything looks fine, I think. The Role Play forum is fine, until it gets a lot of activity, like you said.
